Tip

Use fresh room temperature eggs so that the batter will increase in volume.

Avoid using a skewer to test the sponge as this releases the air necessary to make a light sponge.

Use a serrated knife and carefully slice the cake horizontally while pressing down gently on the top.

    I followed this recipe exactly and my sponge has turned out eggy. The whole house smells like egg. So disappointing because it looked delicious. Any idea what I may have done wrong?
